I didn't have a high expectation for this show, but based on the trailers and the big names, I thought this would be an interesting show. However, It was actually more than what I was expecting. First, CGI is surprisingly well done. CGI on TV shows in general has a certain generic quality, but this show certainly surpassed the bar, and has convincing quality. The story is also very unique and well scripted. It shows more complicated story with deeper layers.

The downside is as some pointed out, it looks like it's rushed, or shorten the overall story. I felt there are at least two episodes missing. One between episode 3 and 4 and another one between 5 and 6. Also special effects have a wide room for improvement. They seemed to have focused on CGI a lot, but focused less on props such as severed limbs and blood.

I think people are giving this show lower ratings because of its gory scenes. I know not everyone has a stomach for it, but in my opinion, we actually saw less of Takashi Miike and more of Kdrama. Hope I can see more of Takashi Miike on season 2 if there is.

This a psychological mystery thriller based on webtoon.

Started great, intrigued me.

But after that writer forgot to develop the story. So dissatisfied me at the end.

Main character Dong-soo is very bland. Doesn't uplift the story.

Antagonist is good but there isn't any mystery remain because it revealed initially itself.

Female lead has good character with shades. It would have more fun, if she was the main character in the series.

Cinematography is good, set the mood perfectly. CGI is okay.

Gory element is good.

There are many plot holes n outlandish things in the series. Not a typical kdrama.

Series end with a cliffhanger, might come back with another season.

I watched this series hoping to get the feel of "Ajin" or "The Strain". I however got an emotional drama about art and horoscope.

The main character did not really develop, nor did it make sense how he keeps becoming dramatic with each event.

The main Villan is not even hard to track, everything he needs to get the information has always been there, but he did not utilize them. Eg: Read some lips, lookup some names...

For a tv series, I would say that the CGI is not bad, but the sound effect would suit, if he is another creature disguising as a human. It almost went full on "Marvel Venom"/ "Species", with a touch of "Kill bill's blood spilling".

The actors did good, I am impressed, but the way the story is told, forces the audience to think that the general IQ of the people in this movie is actually lower than average.

If you are here for some action, this series, has no real action, if you are looking for some story about the strong struggling, here you are.

Most importantly, the Woke-culture here is not as heavy as the west.

The start wasn't that bad, bit rushed but ok. There's wierd police investigation, some facts getting from video records but the crucial ones are being ignored. Even more strange situation is with gang and the writer. At the begging you can overlook this but later you'll get frustrated.....

Bit strange is also the whole killer situation, he's going around unseen with complicated "statues", preparing sofisticated traps in public areas, seems to have much more time than anyone around and see everything. On the other hand he doesn't leave a single clue or trace - either by witness or recording from public cam. Getting from the roof is another story.

Just finished the show. Originally, I was looking forward to watching this as the cast of this one is really promising. The fact that it's a Disney+ original added another alluring feel to it.

However, it was a disappointment.

The acting was okay, but the storyline felt lackluster and incomplete; it had potential but something was definitely missing. The visuals were great though, some of the scenes were mesmerizing. But the lack of depth and character development was glaring. I wish the writers had done a better job with the plot.

They could have added more twists and turns and made it more interesting. It felt like the story was barely touched upon in the time given and could have been a lot more enjoyable if the writers had gone a little bit deeper into the characters and the story. All in all, it was okay, but nothing extraordinary.
